Pvlitlea.1 Prediction For Georgia.
The following political prediction
is given editoral prominence in the
Atlanta Herald:
“Nine-tenths of the Democratic
orators in next year’s campaign in
Georgia will not seek to defend Mr.
Cleveland’s present attitude on sil
ver. The leaders know they have
got to fight the Third party, and
they will ignore Mr. Cleveland’s
extreme views as far as possible.
The letter to Governor Northen
cooked the goose of the “Adminis
tration” party, in Georgia. “Official
organs” and persons who would
like to swing on the coattails of the
President will not be in it, unless
a change comes over the spirit of
the people.”
Undoubtedly, the anti-Cleveland
Democrats of last year who are al
most to a man anti-Administration
Democrats this year, who were so
emphatically put upon the rear
benches in Georgia last year, are
filling themselves now with vain
imaginings of a grand coup next
year by which they will gain con
trol of the party machine, and
dominate the politics of Georgia.
They are counting without their
host.
The Democracy of Georgia repu
diated them last year; it will re
pudiate them next year. The poli
tical orator who goes on the stump
next year and attempts to villify
President Cleveland and this
Democratic Administration, will
find himself politically damned by
the intelligent, honest, fair-play
Democracy of Georgia. He will
find that as a political leader he
wont be worth a last year bird’s
nest, and if he is a candidate for
office on that sort of a platform, he
will bo defeated so badly that he
will not only know himself where
he is at, but none of his friends will
be able to give him the desired in
formation.
The Blue Uwi.

Laws,” so called because they were
printed on blue paper. They be

A Friend of Silri
It is very common for men who
are fighting Mr. Cleveland to call
him a “gold bug.” And then they
insist that he is “striking down sil
ver” that he would wipe it out, etc.
And many people are doubtless
misled by the baseless charges.
Mr. Cleveland stands squarely by
the Chicago platform adopted by
the national democratic convention.
His letter to Governor Northen has
been misinterpreted and warped
in order to prejudice the masses
against the president.
Mr. Cleveland stands to-day just
where he has always stood—a
friend of the people and honest
dollars, whether gold, greenback or
silver. In his letter to the gover
nor, tho president refers to his let
ter of acceptance by saping:
“My letter accepting the nomina
tion to the presidency, when read
in connection v/ith my message
lately sent to congress in extra
ordinary session, appears to me to
be very explicit.”
This makes what Mr. Cleveland
said in his letter of acceptance a
matter deep interest.. Here is his
language:
“Every dollar put into the hands
of the people should be of the same
intrinsic value or purchasing
power. With this condition abso
lutely guaranteed, both gold and
silver can be safely utilized upon
equal terms in the adjustment of
our currency.”
He reiterates this to Governor
Northen, and adds:
“Within the limitsof what I have
already written, I am a friend of
silver, but I believe its proper place
in our currency can only be fixed
by a readjustment of our currency
legislation, and the inauguration of
a consistent and comprehensive
financial scheme.”
In face of the fact that the presi
dent has said that gold and silver
can be used upon equal terms, the
charge is reiterated from day to
day, that Mr. Cleveland >s trying to
“strike down silver.” We do not
doubt for one moment that the
president is ready to sign any bill
that would effectually put silver on
a parity with gold, under the con
ditions outlined in the Chicago con
vention.—Times.
A Story Willi A Monti.
Ten years ago I lived in a town
in Georgia. On returning home
one night, I saw a little girl leave
my door, and I asked my wife who
she was. She said Mrs Harris had
sent her after their newspaper,
which my wife had borrowed. As
we sat down to tea, my wife said
to me by name:
“I wish you would subscribe for
the newspaper; it is so much com
fort to me when you are away from
home.”
“I would like to do so,” said I;
“but you know I owe a payment
on the house and lot. It will be
all I can do to meet it.”
She replied: “If you will take
this paper I will sew for the pay
for it.”
I subscribed for the paper; it
came in due time. While resting
one noon, and looking over It, I
saw an advertisement of the coun-
*v commissioners to Jet a bridge
that was to be built. I putin a bid
fur the bridge, and the job was
awarded to me, on which I cleared
$300, which enabled me to pay for
my house and lot easily and for
the newspaper* If I M* °«>

Tho people of this republic at the
polls in the last national election
spoke with no uncertain sound
teaching certain reforms they wish
ed brought about through national
legislation. In that vote they said
to their representatives in the Uni
ted States congress, and said plain
ly what they desired and what
they demanded in the way of re
form legislation.
So urgent was this demand from
the people and so pressing the
need of reform legislation that tho
president convened congress in
extra session to meet the emerg
ency.
Bat notwithstanding a majority
in congress stands ready to grant
as far as they may, and can through
legislation, the demands of the peo
ple, yet a minority in the national
legislative body is managing to de
feat such action by that body as
will be for the relief of the conn-
try, and hence are defeating the
will of the people. This end they
are compassing staying off from
day to day and from week to week
passage of the repeal bill now
pending before the senate. The de
lay in this matter is working hart
to the great laboring classes in this
country, and especially the cotton
growers of the south whose chief
product is being sold at prices re
strained by the failure of the sen
ate to act on the repeal hill.
The power of a minority in leg
islative bodies to block legislative
action can be and is sometimes
used to defeat the will of the peo
ple. And while this is a lament
able fact at times, nevertheless it
cannot be helped. However, in the
present instance the indications are
that the will of the people will ul
timately triumph in the passage
by the senate of the repeal bill.
IV state luk Tax.
Among the things that will pro
bably be accomplished by the pre
sent congress is the repeal ot the
10 per cent tax on the issues of
State banks.
Already the bill has been intro
duced and the dispatches from
Washington say that the leading
democratic members will push it
through as early as practicable.
The democratic party has de
manded this through its National
platterm, and there seems to be no
reason to doubt thatits behests will
be complied with. A sweeping
away of this prohibitive tax seem
to be especially demanded in the
South, a section that has always
been one of the worst sufferers from
financial stringency.
The tax is clearly without war
rant of justice or the sanction of the
constitution. The right is evidently
within the jurisdiction of the States
to regulate this subject. It can not
be successfully asserted that the
intent of the tax was to raise money
under the revenue clause of the
constitution. It is a well known
fact that not a dollar has ever been
raised in that way.
Of course each State should de
termine for itself whether or not it
desires local banks of issue. The
cry of “wild cat” banks the op
ponents to the repeal of the tax
have raised will not have any effect.
It is generally conceded that the
system as it formerly existed was
very defective and faulty, but it
must be remembered that the peo
ple have outgrown such primitive
methods. The people have pro
gressed and business methods have
advanced with them.
One feature of these hard times
is the immunity of the South seems
to enjoy from desperate distress.
The newspapers have been cheer
ful, even jovial, the banks have
held their own; business houses
have kept out of the hands of the
sheriff, and but little suffering dne
to industrial causes has been re
ported. ‘
The South, moreover, is not dose-
related to foreign trade save
through cotton. Her financial sys-
tem is simple, articles of exchange
are not many, and there is no false
pride among southern whites
which withholds them from econo
mics which many northerners re
fuse to make tor appearance’s sake.
In the South since the war—the
conditions are changing somewhat
—it is generally understood that it
is useless to affect wealth, and
white, and black alike get down to
bog meat and hominy when advis
able.
The majority of the Democratic
party, who nominated Mr; Cleve
land, and the majority of the
American people, who elected him,
are not likely to have their confid
ence in him shaken at this late day
by the petty attacks of his ancient
enetniee, in the ranks of the “ma
chine” politicians and newspa

An exchange suggests that after
Senator Stewart conclnddl his bru
tal assault on President Cleveland
in the Senate several weeks ago,
Senator Gordon onghl to have risen
and told his story abont Trip trying
to bite the army.
We have heard General Gordon
tell the story. On one ocasion,
when the army of the Potomac was
on the march, and brigade after
brigade was tramping solemnly
past a small farm house by the
road side, a little fice dog darted
oat to the gate barking, and gnash
ing his teeth until it seemed he
would split his throat. After
awhile the little fellow’s excitement
attracted the attention of an old
lady in the house who came hur
riedly out of the door and shouted:
“You, Trip 1 Don’t bite the army!”
She gathered Trip up in the folds
of her dress and disappeared out
of sight iu the door of the house,
and suppressed even the bark.
Poor little Trip! We always
thought the old woman did wrong.
Trip could not bite the army, of
coarse, nor scare it, but Trip had
come into the world to bark, and it
made no difference whether he
barked at the army, or hid in the
shade of a stum p at night and bayed
the moon above him. Trip was
fulfilling his mission as he under
stood it. We would not deny the
lowest form of life the enjoyment of
its bent, especially when that bent
is entirely harmless.—Valdosta

“For a long time, and during the term

the lack of room to accommodate the
paupers of the poor house, for the
County Commissioners to appropriate
a certain sum of money monthly to
such person or persons, for their sup

ing to the Board that -it is no longer
necessary to appropriate money in this
way, and that there is ample room for
the accommodation of snch person or

it further appearing that there are a
